The following two URL's (the second is a more granular set of comments) crash
Moz 1.3 final(gtk2), Linux. Box is RH8, using Moz.org RH8 GTK2 rpm's.

I haven't been able to narrow the problem down below the three or four comments
in the above link.
Worksforme with a trunk linux build (2003-03-13-08).  gtk2/xft issue?
Shouldn't the version be changed from "trunk" to "other branch"?

Btw, works for me on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.4a)
Gecko/20030317.
Also WFM on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.3)
Gecko/20030312 (Windows).

I can still reproduce this from Linux, however.

Let me know if there's something I can provide to help hunt down the issue - Is
there a way to get Talkback to work under Linux?

Whiteboard: gtk2/xft issue?
Version: Trunk → Other Branch
WFM, trunk CVS without Gtk2/Xft.
NEver mind, I fixed the issue.

a trace of the running mozilla turned up the following:

read(5, "\1\1v+\0\0\0\0[\276\214\0\5\0\207\0\0\0\0\0p\210W\f\0\0"..., 32) = 32
open("/usr/share/fonts/ja/TrueType/kochi-gothic.ttf", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) ---
unlink("/home/ksnider/.mozilla/default/wmlzkcxy.slt/lock") = 0
_exit(11)

Turns out Red Hat had a Japanese font registered that wasn't actually on the
system. Installing ttfonts-ja corrected the issue for me.
